I feel that these guys would be either very good friends or things would *really* not work out at all.

HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!

What are the best scenes that involve gambling?

Obligatory, but I also love this movie:

Serious:

Humorous:

Probably NSFW but here goes:

Disney pick!

Disney pick!

Also,

Couldn't find a decent version on Youtube.

"You cheat, Dr. Jones! You cheat!"

"I'm very little! You cheat very big!"

"Hey, lady! You call him Dr. Jones."

Watching a noble Jedi cheat at dice... priceless.

I love this entire card game.

Also, I need suggestions if you've got 'em! It's been a stretch these past few weeks

Another Cool Hand Luke vote...

My boy say he can eat fifty eggs, he can eat fifty eggs!

(I wish I could find the whole scene. it's the best!)

That was really the one I wanted to post, but I had the same issue--couldn't find the full scene. Same issue with the Maverick scene. I wanted to get the bit right before Alfred Molina showed his cards. I thought the build up to him freaking out at Maverick not looking at the card made that scene a lot better.

Love that Maverick scene

The last scene of ST:TNG.

The gambling is incidental. The scene shows Picard joining the crew for poker for the first time and it is a subtle and well executed emotional button for the entire series.

Agree wholeheartedly! That always hits right in the feels.
Although technically, the story of the TNG crew keeps going with the movies.

HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!

Question 1: Don't think we've actually done this, so you can "desert island" one game, one book, and one movie. What do you pick? And yes, you have a mystical electricity-free tv that will play a game from any system on which you can also watch your movie

Question 2: Ummmm, gimme some hump day questions please.

Kyodai Mahjong (still the best, and still working even without updates for years)
The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide (I'll take along my copy, TYVM)
Muppet Treasure Island (seems appropriate and it's a favorite)

Don't Starve, Robinson Crusoe, Cast Away.

Game: GTAIV. Runnerup: Skyrim. But that game's already lonely enough.
